... Spacecraft that will search for planetary systems around 40 million stars and observe the largest explosions in the universe have been chosen as the next two missions in NASA's medium-class Explorer (MIDEX) program. ... The first mission, to be launched in 2003, is the Swift Gamma Ray Burst Explorer, a three-telescope space observatory for studying gamma ray bursts. ... During its three-year mission, Swift will also survey the sky for new black holes and other sources of cosmic gamma rays. ...

... Role of Ionizing Radiation in the Natural History of the Earth" . The Solar system, oscillating relative the Galaxy midplane during its revolution around the Galactic center, can occasionally fall inside the gas-dust interstellar clouds, which include remnants of Supernova (SN) explosions. ... The long time stayings of the Earth inside the young SN remnants could induce mass extinctions of the highest, most radiosensitive living organisms and specific global geochemical effects. ...

... The circumnuclear GASEOUS disks are often decoupled from the circumnuclear stellar disks and are even stronger inclined to the outer disk planes; in fact, we have found a considerable `population' of inner polar rings. Inner gas polar rings are found as in spiral galaxies with the massive outer gas disks co-planar to the main symmetry planes (e.g. NGC 2841, Sil'chenko et al. 1997, and NGC 7217, Sil'chenko & Afanasiev 2000) as well in many lenticular galaxies (Fig. ...

... The project assumes creation of an international space observatory - the interferometer "Earth - Space - Space" in order to perform of astronomical investigations in millimeter, submillimeter and infrared regions with extremely high sensitivity (to a few nanoJanskies units of flux density in continuum spectrum) and extremely high angular resolution (to a parts of microsecond of arc or, possibly, nanosecond). ... radio-interferometric channels of the system "Space - Space", region 0.2 - 3 mm; . ...

... The jets can also be produced in smaller scale by binary stellar systems. ... Some 200 -- 250 X-ray binaries, systems in which a neutron star or black hole is accreting material from a companion star, are known. Approximately 20% of these sources have been detected at radio wavelengths, and in several cases high resolution radio observations have resolved this emission into jet-like structures, sometimes with components moving at relativistic velocities. ... It is variable radio source. ...
